Destination Laos
In addition to its impressive cultural heritage, Laos is a perfect place for ecotourism, whether enjoying nature or practicing outdoor sports.
Discover Laos
Asia in slow motion: this is the setting of Laos, a country located in Southeast Asia that borders Thailand, Myanmar and China, but which, unlike its neighbors, attracts attention for its smooth everyday life.
The country's tranquility is reflected in the preservation of its culture and ethnic plurality, and even today there are isolated communities that live like their ancestors throughout the country.
Eclectic for visitors as well, there's a travel style to Laos for everyone:
- For the adventurous, explore caves, go rock climbing or feel the adrenaline of ziplining through the jungle trees;
- For nature lovers, enjoy the wild side and observe exotic animals native to the region;
- In a cultural itinerary there are centuries-old temples steeped in Laotian history;
- For a food tour, the spicy style of the local restaurants promises a unique experience.
